How do I remove the fabric from the cot so that I can wash it?

Not sure if you can do that and not sure if you want to do that. I think for you to remove the canvas, you have to dismantle the frames meaning you have to remove the rivets (you dont want to do that, Im sure). If you want to wash the canvas, why not just hand-wash it with soap and sponge, spray with garden hose and let it dry under the sun. I doubt the water can do damage to the aluminum frame. My suggestion..

I'm inclined to agree with ginomari's answer. I wouldn't consider dismantling. One might use upholstery cleaner, or oxygen cleaners, or stain removers if the canvas is really nasty.Maybe even a car wash if the pressure's not too high, or a vacuum cleaner with upholstery cleaning fittings.

I'm pretty sure the fabric is permanently fastened to the frame. If you are looking to wash it I'd suggest taking a wet rag or sponge with some mild detergent and hand washing the fabric, then let it air dry.

The seat is removable and I believe can be washed. I just wipe it down with a damp cloth if needed.

Just wash and dry with sheets or towels. No special instructions. The cotton side has shrunk a little, so it doesn't lay as flat as it used to, but that's no biggie.

I heard people put it in the washer . However I just wash it with soapy water and a rag. Then I use wee wee pads and shredded news paper so the canvas doesn't get nasty

You could wash it with a cloth but I don't think it disassembles for washing. I covered the little mattress with a towel to make for easier cleanup.

It is a plastic encased mattress. Just wipe off with a wet cloth or maybe a sanatizing wipe.

This fabric is not remove able. It can be spot cleand by a spot cleaner. This chair is true to its color and design, but the seat is very shallow and if you sit to close to the end of the chair it tips over.

I'm not sure if the fabric panels can be taken off and washed but possibly. The metal could be washed.

I'm not certain. There was a vinyl mattress that I would wash with vinegar and water spray, along w extra sheets I would launder regularly. We traveled with them and used the co-sleepers for probably a little under a year and in that time they didn't really get dirty. I imagine any soiling could be wiped off w a simple detergent, water, and towel combo (The ole fashioned, elbow grease, spot treatment). In short, I think throwing it in a washing machine might be weird and very loud bc of the metal and plastic leg parts (which fold up easily) but hand washing/spot washing is probably best. I hope that helps!

I use wipes or a wet paper towel on the exterior. You can remove sheets and wash them. I have 2 sheets to alternate on laundry day!

You can use any thing that you would normally use in a crib, you can remove the fabric from the metal pieces and wash it or change it.

Use a wash cloth dipped in a solution of warm water and a little mild laundry detergent.

I have taken the cover off and washed in the washmachine. It takes some doing. You have to undo all the straps and watch just how they go before taking them off. Once all the straps are off the cover will be easy to get off.

The mattress does come out of the sleeve. However, the sleeve is sown onto the cot and therefore cannot go in the washer. I use an extra mattress pad on it--which also makes it more comfortable.

I would spot clean with a mild cleaner. The fabric is similar to canvas, so I imagine you could take it outside and hose it down if the mess is bad enough, as long as you let it dry completely.

You can unhook it and wash it. So, that said, you can probably take it to the laundromat.

No. At least mine cannot be removed. I bought another cover and put it on top of it and that's the one i take out and wash. Hope this helps
